The World Health Organization has issued a grave warning that "millions of lives are at risk again" due to Israel's resumption of its genocide on Gaza. This latest offensive has already killed an international humanitarian worker in a airstrike on a UN facility, injuring five others. The WHO Director-General condemned the attack and called for an immediate ceasefire, release of hostages, and protection of civilians and aid workers. Tragically, this is just the latest escalation in Israel's ongoing violence against Palestinians. The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for Israel leaders over war crimes and crimes against humanity. There is also an active genocide case against Israel at the International Court of Justice regarding its actions in Gaza. This violence and oppression against the Palestinian people must end. I am urging you to support an immediate, comprehensive arms embargo on Israel to stop the flow of weapons enabling this military onslaught and horrific human rights abuses. An arms embargo is a moral necessity to protect civilian lives in Gaza and uphold international law. I implore you to take decisive action on this paramount issue of human rights and human lives.
